Hi All,

We have taken the plunge and bought a Biscaya 370 (2005 model).

The official instructions leave a little to be desired.

I have read a few tips on how to put them up, but now I can't find them

Could one or two of the 15-20 minute boys/girls please pass on your tips?

Thanks

Hi cpvh

We have a 440. Instructions say that after putting awning pole up you should then go in and put other end up. We have found it best to put the centre pole up then the end one, followed by the one that forms the front. The zipping to the gs was a pain at first, but after a few tries is no problem now. Pegging the tent  down is no problem, but found it best to use plastic pegs as the metal ones supplied are u/s. We use Delta pegs for the straps at the front. Also just loosely peg the g/s before puting the poles up, then peg it properly after.
